The Blogster is fairly disappointed that the recent routine investigation of the quasi-public Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority by the state Auditors of Public Accounts has yielded nothing in the way of juicy public outrages. In fact, it is very rare for the auditors to write “No recommendation resulted from our current review.” But that’s indeed what occurred in the review issued the other day. Of the eight bullet points in the “Recommendations” pages, on the audit of the 2007, only one seems to be lingering and that’s because the state DEP has dropped the ball on approving a statewide solid waste plan. Otherwise, the CRRA has resolved billing problems; strengthened internal controls; scheduled regular monthly meetings; posted required information on the Internet; stopped borrowing money from the state; and fixed procurement problems.
